Kanye West - Jesus Is King arthouse album
Jesus Is King is Kanye West’s most arthouse album.
I’m surprised that “Jesus Is King” was Kanye’s lowest-rated album, especially considering that it sounds fresher than anything that came out in 2019 overall. Don’t think fresher = better, because this album is far from ideal. And there is a feeling …
CD - Sanctus Real - The Face of Love
The Face of Love CD by Sanctus Real was given to me by a friend. I hadn’t heard of them before, so I was a little unsure as to whether or not I would like this cd. As first listen, I was mildly impressed, but as I listened to …
Actor, 2009 Album by St.Vincent

The Rolling Stones - Hold Back (Song)

Mothership Album by Led Zeppelin
I don’t think I still need to spell it out…just by the name Led Zeppelin you will know how great and how amazing this album can be, you will just unconsiously tell yourself “this is going to be an incredible album!”.
The BBC Session Album is my most favorite remastered …

Scars On Broadway - World Long Gone (Music Video)
Overview —“ World Long Gone, the second music video and single released by Scars On Broadway is pretty much a performance music video, however there’s an audience to this performance, and these audience members carry the meaning of the song. I like this concept because it isn’t just a …
Brothers & Sisters by Coldplay

Bad Boy Entertainment

NOW 23 CD
Usually, the NOW CD’s have a sad compilation of songs that did ‘alright’ that year in the Top 40 charts. NOW 23, however, did have songs that did extremely well and whose titles I actually remembered. There were one or two songs that I didn’t recognize, but the rest …

Limewire Music Downloader Free Edition
I had used Bearshare for years in downloading music but it seemed that they only have a few selections and seeders (people who share and upload) so my husband told me to switch to Limewire and just get the free version as it is still better then Bearshare.
When I …

Their second song to release with a video was “Clothes Off”
This song has a …
The Painter by OTown
This is not the only song I love with Otown; it is just that this is memorable because someone sang it for me. What I am not sure is, if he deliberately means the words. This song uses metaphor to describe what this song is trying to convey.
Let me …
The Fragile, 1999 Album by Nine Inch Nails

Carrie Underwood’s Play On Album
I have been a fan of Carrie Underwood since she won American Idol. Every song that she came out with after that I thought was really great and I truly believed that she was bringing country music to a completely different level. People started liking country music more than …
Eminem - Im Not Afraid - Single
After a pretty average last album, back came Eminem with a new one, Relapse and the first release, Im Not afraid.
It was typical Eminem, for me back to his best. The indication was that he was now rapping about something that has happened and is real and important and …
The Rolling Stones - Cool, Calm, And Collected (Song)

Lyon by Washburn electric guitar
I bought a cheap but good deal electric guitar, Lyon by Washburn. Black, nicely finished and very neat. There’s no pickguard and the dots on the fretboard is on the top and kind of invisible because it’s so small. The guitar itself looks like Washburn OX11 …
Skylar Grey ft. X Ambassadors - Cannonball (Song )
I have been a casual fan of X Ambassadors ever since their sleeper hit “Renegades” started taking off early this year. In fact if you look at the reviews I made for this very site, then you’ll see that I’ve reviewed “Renegades” too. Side note: I still love that …
Pray by Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber. You love him. You despise him. You are in the middle. Regardless everyone has their own distinct opinion of Justin Bieber. If any song is going to convince Bieber haters to see a positive side of the singer it’s his inspirational song “Pray.” Or it will just …

Chris Brown Exclusive
Oh how I am falling in love with Chris Brown. To me, his songs are actually music, not just top 40 radio drivel. There’s a lot of stuff out there I consider drivel, but not his music. My fiance and I are even dancing to his single ‘Forever’ for …
Indescribable
Indescribable by Chris Tomlin is a song that sums it all up. Indescribable is just the word to describe what god is. He is hard to explain and in so many ways you can’t explain him that’s why I agree he is one hundred percent Indescribable. I like this …
The Beatles - I’m Looking Through You (Song)

Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (1994)
I hate this album. I hate it just because this is the last Pink Floyd album, for good. That’s the only reason, other than that, this is the first Pink Floyd album I got to listen to as a whole, and the song that made me listen, was High …

Busy Man song

Queens of the Stone Age (rock band)
By 2002, it seemed as if the sound of a lot of the mainstream rock music that I was used to listening to had begun to change. A lot of bands I would hear playing on the radio no longer had that distinctive post-grunge sound and more people were beginning …
Here, Here, and Here Album by Meg & Dia
